History & Style

Beau’s Gruit Series takes inspiration from centuries-old brewing tradition; a time before the Bavarian Purity Act of 1516 that declared that all beer be made solely with barley, hops, and water. In gruit ale, herbs, spices and other botanicals replace a dominant hop character, throwing open the door to experimentation. Each gruit in this series will have a unique combination of ingredients and flavours. Bog Water is Beau’s original foray into the world of gruits. Returning just in time for winter, this intricate, fruity ale is the perfect companion to an evening spent by the fireplace.

Tasting Notes

Bog Water is malty, with a plum-like fruitiness that is offset by spicy, earthy bitterness. A sweet aroma leads into herbal bog myrtle notes, and a mild taste of cola.
